[PDI] Thursday Dec 15 AMI Chicago Chapter Meeting -- NO MORE Economic BAND AIDS! Systemic Change to Serve the Needs of the 99%

DESCRIPTION: The time for economic band aids is over and the need for systemic change is extremely urgent! This meeting will focus on what kind of systemic change needs to take place, why we can no longer afford to waste time on distractions and false solutions, and how we might best carry this urgent message to the public at large. The meeting will be divided into two segments. The first segment will include a recap of the key elements of proper, Constitutional monetary reform and some key provisions of the NEED Act followed by a question and answer period. The second segment will be a brainstorming session on how to raise visibility of and increase support for the NEED Act, including an idea-sharing session for strategic participation in upcoming events such as the upcoming G-8 Conference, the NATO conference and the elections, and an idea-sharing session on ways to go about setting up monetary reform study groups and activist support groups.
